Abstract of R. Guidotti lecture


POSITIVE EXPOSURE: CELEBRATING THE SPIRIT OF
DIFFERENCE

R. Guidotti
Positive ExposureUSA

Positive Exposure, founded in 1997 by former fashion photographer
Rick Guidotti and Diane McLean, MD, PhD, MPH, is a highly
innovative arts organization working with individuals living with genetic
difference. Positive Exposure’s innovative approach challenges the
stigma associated with difference, and celebrates the richness of
genetic diversity. It masterfully combines an appreciation of both
Science and Art to explore society’s concepts of beauty and stigma
that are associated with genetic physical or behavioral difference
cross culturally. Rick Guidotti’s inspiring presentation offers a fresh
exploration of the joy that comes with self-acceptance, providing a
look at how an individual’s self-perception can be altered by having his
or her own image reflected through a positive and life-affirming lens.
